Delina Exclusif has competition
When I received the Club de Nuit Impériale as a bottling and tested it for the first time, the fragrance reminded me a lot of Delina Eau de Parfum But compared to Delina, Armaf is more citrusy and not as feminine.
That's why I first thought it was a Delina dupe with a twist.
But it was actually a Delina Exclusif Dupe.
And a really very good one at that.
The start is strongly reminiscent of lemon cake.
The bergamot is not typically fresh as in many other fragrances.
It exudes a certain freshness, but at the same time a sweetness reminiscent of a lemon cake.
Almost at the same time, you also notice the lychee.
Both notes are very prominent, but the bergamot is somewhat more present.
For me personally, the nutmeg is not perceptible at all.
In the DD, the peony is added, which is also familiar from Delina.
The result is an interplay of these three notes (lychee, bergamot & peony).
Musk and vanilla are more in the background but still present.
They give the fragrance a subtle, sweet powderiness.
However, the fragrance is never too sweet.
It maintains the balance between sweetness and freshness from start to finish.
It is a sweet, subtly fresh, slightly fruity, pleasantly powdery, floral fragrance of niche quality.
I never smell the incense that many people perceive until the end.
Is it perhaps batch-dependent? At least this note is never prominent in my batch.
Because my bottling also smells slightly different to the liquid in my bottle.
In my bottling, I detect a very unpleasant rubber note that smells like slightly burnt car tires.
My perfume doesn't have that note at all.
And the bottling also smells slightly more unisex, while my Impérial smells a little more feminine.
The differences are not enormous, but they are decisive.
If you get hold of the batch with the gummy note, you will probably want to get rid of the fragrance straight away.
The performance, like the fragrance itself, is great!
Longevity and radiance are enormous.
I remember spraying the fragrance on my cap last summer and wearing it all day.
The next day I wore the cap again and could perceive the fragrance as strongly as if I had just applied it an hour ago.
But this could also vary from batch to batch, as some have rated the sillage at 6-7.
Even though I love the fragrance, I can't recommend it to a man.
It smells too feminine.
But if you layer it with another floral fragrance that smells masculine, you can probably still wear it as a man.
Perfect for summer, spring, fall, you can actually wear the fragrance almost anytime and anywhere.
You can't say that about many fragrances.
It is definitely suitable for the masses and should bother very few people.
Unless you spray too much of it on, because as I said, it has power.
All in all, I can recommend this fragrance to every lady who likes fragrances like Delina or Delina Exclusif.
Delina was always far too feminine for me, which is why I had to give up my Rose 01 Eau de Parfum (Delina Dupe).
The Club de Nuit Impériale, on the other hand, is a little less feminine, although it is quite feminine, so I will probably keep and use it for a very long time.
